Record label permission letter

Copyright is the legal right given to the person who creates a certain piece of work. For example, Lana Del Rey holds the rights over her song 'Without You'. These said rights give the person control over who uses their work and who can reproduce it.

As a group it became apparent to us that we needed to ask for permission to use the song we are wanting to use before we carry on with the planning. Because of this, I have emailed Lana Del Rey's record label, 'Stranger Records' to confirm that we can use 'Without You.'

Below is a printscreen of the email that I sent the record label. As you can see I clearly stated our reasoning for wanting to use the song and I highlighted the fact that we would not be using it for any money making purposes, this way the record label will be aware that we will not be making any profit from a piece of work that does not belong to us personally.
